Xeon would be nice but I'm doing a slow paced upgrade and I'm looking at a 5930 cpu and the MSI X99 Krait mobo with watercooling combo from Overclockers, but my work laptop needed replacing and I went for a new Macbook pro before my gaming rig so it looks like Janb/Feb before I get it finished, that said the performance on this build of AotS is more than acceptable so I wont have to hurry up and upgrade, like you I also play a bit Elite Dangerous as well as a few other single and mult

I'm running Win 10 atm and so far, hope I don't curse myself here, dx12 version is running fine and performance is a lot better than dx11. I'm also running a i7 920 as well but my Oc has been a bit fidgety lately so I'm running stock. I get the same as you in dx11 but in dx12 the average for all batches is 52.7.
That article was why I got AOTS, serves me right for diving in and just looking at the benchmark results and not reading the article fully, though I guess its only a matter before theres a build released with it implemented, thanks for the reply.
I recently upgraded from a 670 to a 980ti and was curious as to wether it would be worth trying or would the disparity in card performance make it a pointless endeavour? Has anyone else been doing similar, and if so what have the results been like? Thanks for any replies.
